TIP to those that are new to PHP/MySQL

[Frederick]

When you find a snippet of code, copy and paste that code into Notepad and save it as Cheat_Sheet.txt

Give each item a name the pertains to that snippet of code for easy reference. Example below.

##########################################
LINE FOR MySQL RESULT
####################
$str = "".$rec["content"]."";
echo nl2br($str);

##########################################
SET COOKIE
###########
setcookie('securelogin', $securelogin, time()+(606024*30), '/', '', 0);

##########################################
AUTH LINK AND REFRESH
########################
echo "<META HTTP-EQUIV='refresh' CONTENT='0; URL=your_page.php'>";

This will help you quite a bit for when you run into the same situation. No one can remember all this stuff. The brain does need to purge when you put to much in.

It's about your last meta tag!

Have fun!

I do that all the time. 🙂
I have a php file called misc.php and I put snippets of code that I created that I think I'll use often (and possibly forget them), and some other snippets that look good. 🙂
